Bella:
"It says here that Lauren and Jessica died together in a car crash 10 years ago." Emmett shouts over to all of us.
"So it's them, then?" I ask, a little shocked.
"Would they really go to all this trouble just because they're jealous?" Edward asks sceptically.
"It's the only thing we've got to go on, so, for now, we'll just have to presume it's them." Jasper says to us.
"Ok, so what's the plan?" Emmett asks.
"We need more people. To help us. I mean, we've already agreed that we are completely outnumbered by all the newborns, so we need more vampires. And wolves." Edward suggests.
"Yeah! I can call Sam's pack, I'm sure they'd be willing to help." I'm sure they'd help me. Ben, Angela and Jacob meant a lot to them, I'm sure.
"I can call Charlotte and Peter." Jasper adds.
"I've got people I can get in contact with, too. The Amazonians, for instance." Carlisle says as Eleazar nods in agreement with him.
Everyone goes off to call all their old friends or just people they'd met.
"Hello?" Sam answers, sounding older. I hope he still phases.
"Hey Sam…it's Bella. You know, Isabella Swan?" I reply.
"Bella! I haven't heard from you in ages! How's Jake, Ange and Ben doing?" Sam replies, sounding happy. Well, I'm just about to ruin that happy mood.
"Uh…not good. Ange and Ben were on a second honeymoon, and Jake was out searching for his imprint when…they went missing." I mutter the last part but, judging by the gasp, he still heard me.
"What? Gone missing? But they're wolves!" Sam practically shouts.
"Look, I know, alright! One of my vampire friends has gone missing, too. A huge newborn army has been created. Someone really powerful is doing this." I explain, trying to stop the shouting.
"I have a feeling you're not just calling to inform me of missing people." Sam responds.
"Alright, you got me. I was wondering if you and the pack are, well, still a pack?" I ask hopefully.
"If you mean do we still phase, then yes. Why?" Sam sounds like he's smiling on the other end.
"Fancy a trip to Alaska?" I'm still hopeful. It sounds like he might be up for it, though.
"I suppose I could manage that." Sam says, and I can definitely hear the grin in his voice.
"Thank you so much! I'll owe you for the rest of my life!" I shout down the phone at him.
"That's a long time, vampire. See you soon!" Sam teases before hanging up.
"Sam says he'll come." I announce to everyone.
Jasper says that Peter and Charlotte say they'll come, and Carlisle says so will the Amazonians.
I feel more confident now that more people will come. Hopefully then, we can kill the rest of the newborn army, all 80 of them, and hunt down whoever is doing this. Even though Jasper and everyone think it's Lauren and Jessica, a part of me isn't so certain. I mean, going to all this trouble just because of jealousy? No, I don't think that's right.
Though, I have no idea who it is. Who could want to hurt Edward and me this badly? I can't think of anyone who hates us, either of us, so much.
We wait for the rest of the afternoon, for everyone to arrive. Well, Peter and Charlotte, and the wolves should get here today, but we'll have to wait a bit longer for the Amazonians.
"Why don't we just go to the Volturi?" Rosalie suggests. I see Tanya and Kate shudder at the mention of them. Their creator, and woman they looked up to as a mother, was killed by the Volturi for creating an immortal child.
"How do we know they're not behind this?" Tanya says, not even mentioning their name.
"I just think we're going to need all the help we can get." Rosalie huffs.
"Help? We could be inviting in the enemy?!" Tanya shouts back.
"The wolves or Peter and Charlotte could be the enemy, for all we know!" Rosalie shouts at Tanya.
"Do you know something? For all we know, you could be the enemy." Tanya whispers, pointing at Rosalie.
"Stop it! We don't need to be fighting with each other! How could it be Rosalie when she was with us in the living room when the people were going missing?" I shout at both of them. "Look, Tanya, I know you're upset about what the Volturi did. At the moment, I don't think we need to call them, but we might do later. We still don't really know what we're up against." I say more softly to Tanya.
"Ok. I'm sorry, Rosalie. I just…she wasn't just my creator; she was my mother, my guardian. I miss her all the time." Tanya mutters sadly.
"I know how you feel." Alice says, appearing from nowhere, like always. "My creator died saving me. I can't even remember his name." Alice smiles at Tanya, who I can see is cheering up. "And, I've been keeping a watch on the Volturi's decisions recently. They've noticed the recent increase in deaths in the area of Seattle, and are considering taking action. They appear to know nothing about an army being created. They haven't even associated this with the Cullen's yet." Tanya definitely looks more relieved, now.
"Do you think we should call them, then?" Rosalie asks. "Oh, and Tanya, I'm sorry for making you remember bad things. I think all of us at one stage in our somewhat long lives have had bad memories." Rosalie actually apologised for something? That's new, she must really be sorry.
"Not yet. We'll wait for the wolves – I'm not sure the Volturi will be too happy working with them. They can be quite old fashioned." Alice says, sitting next to me on the floor.
They continue the Volturi discussion, basically making fun of their old fashions ways, so I go over to Edward.
"Do you think we need the Volturi?" I ask, sitting down next to him, though he pulls me into his lap.
"Not yet. Not with the extra wolves and vampires that'll be coming soon." Edward begins kissing me cheek, and then my lips. I don't think he's really focussing, but I'm not too bothered.
Soon, we'll have reinforcements, which will hopefully bring everyone back soon enough.
A/N: Do you think they'll have to call in the Volturi? :O
Review please! :)
